Making Lake Michigan accessible! We are a sailing school with the best view in Milwaukee.
About us
The Milwaukee Community Sailing Center is a private, not-for-profit 501 (c) 3 agency located just north of downtown in the heart of Veterans Park at McKinley Marina. MCSC's mission is to promote sailing and to make Lake Michigan available to everyone in the Greater Milwaukee area through quality programming. Milwaukee County Sailing Center MCSC owns and maintains over 80 boats and members have no-charge access to the fleet after they successfully demonstrate basic sailing skills and earn a rating. The Sailing Center also offers private boat owners boat and dinghy storage, mast stepping, launching and haul-out services. Each summer, MCSC partners with local organizations to provide sailing opportunities to thousands of at-risk and economically disadvantaged youth, the physically challenged and others. MCSC also provides social activities and volunteer opportunities to members. We invite you to learn more about a great organization. The Sailing Center is an active member of US Sailing (the national governing body of sailing in the United States) and follows many of their procedures and guidelines. MCSC also works with US Sailing and their Keelboat Certification Program to award national certifications to members of the Sailing Center and US Sailing. We also have a premier event facility, located right on Lake Michigan. Make an appointment to view our Windhoover Room for your next event.

Join us for a kick-off seminar with Donald Marwin, owner of the J-24 Dragonfly, who restored his boat by tackling major rebuilds, including replacing 60% of the deck. Don will share his experiences and help us start our own winter restoration project on MCSC boats. Sailors interested in helping with a larger-scale restoration project like this are invited to attend. Register here: https://buff.ly/3NodDr3

We're excited to announce that Tim Gallion and his family have generously donated their beloved 420 to MCSC's Centerboard Fleet. The boat includes sails, a dolly and trailer and is in tip-top condition. It will be put into duty as a key part of our Youth Levels 3 and 4 and 50.3 Adult Advanced Centerboard classes next year. Thanks to the Gallions!
